Ronnie's Notes

Last year I mentioned that I make a roasted goose every Hanukkah (recipe and all). Well, yesterday I bought the bird and my goose will be cooked next weekend, for our traditional family Hanukkah dinner. This isn’t an old tradition in our family. It started with me, after I read that in German Jewish families goose is a traditional dinner on the Fifth night of Hanukkah.

Well, we all love goose so we can pretend to be German that night, just like on St. Patrick’s Day we eat Irish-style: corned beef and cabbage and Irish Soda Bread.

Lo and behold! Our Hanukkah dinner this year falls on the fifth night of Hanukkah (December 24th). How nice!

In addition to the goose we’ll have roasted potatoes (using some of the goose fat that renders), a green vegetable and this Sweet and Sour Red Cabbage:
